Subject: 703 N Pacific Coast Highway Project- Environmental Documentation Proposal
Dear Mr. Samaras:
We are pleased to submit this proposal for the preparation of environmental documentation for the proposed
703 North Pacific Coast Highway Project in the City of El Segundo (City). Based on direction from the City, Dudek is
proposing the preparation of either a Subsequent or Supplemental Environmental Impact Report (SEIR) or an
Addendum to the Pacific Coast Commons Specific Plan EIR to comply with the California Environmental Quality Act
(CEQA) and CEQA Guidelines.
Dudek's Senior Project Manager Kristin Starbird will manage the CEQA documentation, bringing her proven track
record of exceptional client service and commitment to excellence to this important Project. She has a robust
resume of experience leading the environmental documentation for general plan, area plan, and specific plan
projects, and was the Project Manager for the successful completion of the Pacific Coast Commons Specific Plan
Project EIR in the City. She is skilled at managing high -profile projects, including the recently completed Los
Angeles County Metro Area Plan Program EIR, and is currently preparing the South Bay Area Plan Program EIR for
the Los Angeles County Department of Regional Planning. Because of Dudek's work in the South Bay and El
Segundo specifically, we are familiar with its diverse community makeup, infrastructure, and land use
environments, which will facilitate the efficient and successful delivery of the project's CEQA document.
Supported by numerous in-house technical experts, Ms. Starbird will prepare a comprehensive SEIR or Addendum
that meets all City standards for this Project.
Dudek is ready to assist the City in the environmental review process for this Project and can begin preparation of
the SEIR and required technical analyses upon receipt of a written notice to proceed. Our team's experience
navigating projects through the CEQA process will help us deliver this environmental documentation on time and
within budget. We look forward to the opportunity to assist you with this important project. If you have any
questions or comments, please contact Ms. Starbird at 626.204.9839 or by email at kstarbird@dudek.com.
Sincerely,
Kristin Starbird
Senior Project Manager
Eric Wilson is authorized to sign on behalf of Dudek.

Relevant Experience Overview
Dates: 2019-2022
Dudek prepared the EIR for the Pacific Coast Commons Specific Plan. The Project would allow for the
redevelopment of the existing surface parking lots and a portion of the Fairfield Inn and Suites Hotel property
through the adoption of a Specific Plan. The Specific Plan would create five new land use districts that would allow
for up to 263 new housing units, 11,252 gross square feet of new commercial/retail uses, new parking garages,
as well as the continued use and operation of the existing Fairfield Inn and Suites Hotel and Aloft Hotel uses. The
proposed Project is composed of three development areas: (1) Pacific Coast Commons - South (PCC-South), (2)
Pacific Coast Commons - Fairfield Parking (PCC-Fairfield Parking), and (3) Pacific Coast Commons - North (PCC-
North). Through the implementation of the Specific Plan, these two hotels would be brought into full conformity
with the land use designation and zoning for the Project site.
The majority of the key staff identified in Figure 1 were involved in the preparation of the EIR for the Pacific Coast
Commons Specific Plan and will bring efficiencies and expertise to the proposed Specific Plan Amendment.
Dates: 2023-Present
Dudek is currently preparing a Subsequent EIR for the Mesa Verde Specific Plan Area 2 Amendment No. 2 in the
City of Calimesa. The Project proposes an amendment to the 2017 Specific Plan and would allow for development
of various land uses, including approximately 250,000 square feet of mixed -use and commercial uses, up to
3,650 residential units, over 4,000,000 square feet of business park, 2 elementary school sites, open space and
public/private parks, utility infrastructure, and roadways on the currently undeveloped 1,463.1 acre Project site.
Off -site utility improvements and roadway/circulation improvements are required, including improvements to the
Interstate 10 interchange at Sandalwood Drive.
Dates: 2022-2023
Dudek prepared an Addendum to the Housing Element Update PEIR for the Gateway Planning Area on behalf of
the Los Angeles County Department of Regional Planning. The Addendum analyzed potential environmental
impacts associated with the Gateway Planning Area Rezoning Program, which included upzoning certain parcels to
accommodate more housing options, rezoning certain parcels to ensure consistency across the General Plan
Land Use Map and the Zoning Code, and an Alternate Parcel Component, which allowed for flexibility in the
rezoning program for the County Department of Regional Planning and for the Gateway community.

residentially zoned parcels. The EIR provides the County with the opportunity to consider broad policy alternatives
and program -wide mitigation measures and to comprehensively address potential environmental impacts.
Dates: 2021- 2022
Dudek prepared an EIR for the Alexan Mixed -Use Project, which includes the demolition of some of the existing
structures on the project site, including a two-story office building, two one-story commercial buildings, and
surface parking, to develop a new residential tower. The project would construct a seven -story multifamily
residential building containing 319 dwelling units adjacent to an on -site eight -story office tower, including amenity
uses, exterior pedestrian/paseo improvements, and subterranean parking. The project required evaluation of
historic resources for on -site buildings to be demolished.
Dates: 2017- 2021
Dudek prepared an EIR for a new 67,513-square-foot wellness center that would provide medical -related research
and development uses and clinical/medical office space in the City of Santa Monica's Healthcare Mixed Use District.
The project involves demolition of several structures and surface parking to accommodate the new three-story wellness
center with five -level subterranean parking garage. The project includes the beneficial reuse of the designated GKGM
Building, which is a historic resource in the City of Santa Monica's Historic Resources Inventory. A full -service restaurant
located within the GKGM Building would remain as -is, and the remaining space within the GKGM Building would be
adaptively reused for research and development use as a part of the wellness center.

Dates: 2022 - 2023
Dudek prepared an EIR for The Derby Mixed -Use Project, which is a 6-story mixed -use development involving the
demolition of two restaurant buildings and associated surface parking and the construction of approximately
15,000 square feet of restaurant/cafe space, 205 market -rate dwelling units, and nine affordable dwelling units,
totaling 214 for -rent dwelling units. Although no historical resources were identified within the project site, the
existing The Derby restaurant, which is proposed for demolition, is recognized as a valued community institution.
The project would rebuild The Derby as the flagship commercial component of a new mixed -use building.
Discretionary permits required include a General Plan amendment, a zone change, a lot -line adjustment, a minor -
use permit (for valet parking and outdoor dining), and site plan and design review.
CEQA Approach
Dudek understands that implementation of the 703 North PCH Project (Project or modified Project), which would
expand the boundaries of the Pacific Coast Commons Specific Plan (PCCSP) to include AIN 4139-018-001 and
would increase the development build -out of the PCCSP, which would require numerous entitlements that are
subject to CEQA.' The Specific Plan would be modified to include the proposed Project, which would include
demolition of an existing building (assumed to be vacant) and surface parking to allow for construction of a seven -
story building that would accommodate 13,754 square feet of retail, 50 residential apartment units; and three
levels of parking garage. Property would be dedicated to the City for roadway/sidewalk right-of-way expansion.
The recently -approved PCCSP included eight parcels that total 6.23 net acres of land adjacent to Pacific Coast
Highway. It is understood that the original PCCSP project components would not change and that the addition of
the 703 N PCH project is the only addition to the modified Project. Due to the expansion of the boundaries of the
PCCSP and increased buildout of residential and commercial uses, the City is considering the use of a
Subsequent or Supplemental EIR (SEIR), per CEQA Guidelines Section 15162 or 15163, or an Addendum per
Section 15164. As a summary, if an EIR from an earlier project cannot be used, a subsequent EIR can be
prepared, or if only minor additions or changes to the previous EIR are needed, a supplemental EIR could be
prepared. An Addendum may be prepared if some changes or additions are necessary, but preparation of a
Subsequent EIR is not necessary. The decision to prepare either a SEIR or an Addendum, would be determined in
close consultation with the City, after preparation of the Initial Study (see Task 2). Dudek will prepare an Initial
Study to consider whether the Project may cause new or more substantial significant effects that were not
examined in the PCCSP EIR (State Clearinghouse No. 2020050508, adopted in April 2022).
If a SEIR is required, it is Dudek's objective to "focus out" as many topics through the Initial Study as appropriate
to focus the SEIR on topics that have new potentially significant environmental impacts. Assuming the availability
of complete technical studies, this scope of work anticipates the following topics could be focused out through the
Initial Study: agriculture and forestry resources; biological resources; geology and soils; hazards and hazardous
materials; hydrology and water quality; mineral resources; and wildfire. For those topics carried forward into the
SEIR, within each topical chapter, the Draft SEIR would assess the impacts of the modified Project in comparison
to the existing conditions, and determine whether the originally approved EIR retains adequate informational
value on the assessment of environmental impacts, or whether the proposed Project would result in new or
substantially different significant environmental impacts such that previously proposed mitigation measures
would be eliminated or revised, or whether new mitigation measures are required.
If the results of the technical studies and the Initial Study indicate that an Addendum is the appropriate, in
coordination with the City, Dudek will prepare the Addendum in conformance with the requirements of CEQA
Guidelines Section 15164. This proposal includes tasks that will allow for preparation of either an SEIR or an
Addendum. Dudek will provide efficiencies for this environmental evaluation given that Dudek prepared the
PCCSP EIR and can seamlessly review, evaluate, and incorporate our previous analyses and modeling to
determine potential impacts associated with the modified Project, which will save the City time and money.

Dudek's project manager will attend one kickoff meeting with representatives from the City to confirm the
approach to the CEQA documentation. In preparation for the kickoff meeting, Dudek will prepare support
materials, including an agenda, preliminary schedule, and comprehensive data needs list. The purpose of the
meeting is to compile the relevant background data and reports, clearly define the project description, discuss
important assumptions for achieving the Project schedule, confirm all anticipated discretionary actions, confirm
communication and protocols for ongoing coordination, and discuss issues and concerns that the City determines
to be important issues for CEQA analysis.
Dudek will provide the City with a list of data needs related to the Specific Plan Amendment for coordination with
the Project Applicant, including requests for information on the construction -related activities and phasing
assumptions and construction/occupancy schedule. Using available information, Dudek will prepare a draft
project description, including the following:
■ Environmental setting overview and existing site uses and operations

Dudek will prepare technical analyses assessing the air quality, greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and energy
impacts of the Specific Plan Amendment utilizing the significance thresholds in Appendix G of the CEQA
Guidelines, the South Coast Air Quality Management District's (SCAQMD's) CEQA Guidelines, and City guidance,
as available and applicable. The CEQA document would update previous air quality, GHG emissions, and energy
analyses contained in the previous PCCSP EIR sections.
For the air quality, GHG emissions, and energy analyses, Dudek will 1) summarize the previous CEQA
documentation analysis and significance conclusions by threshold, 2) model the modified Project using the
current version of California Emissions Estimation Model (CalEEMod), 3) identify mitigation measures required
through previous CEQA analysis that are applicable to the Project, and 4) include a concluding statement
comparing the modified Project's CEQA significance determination to the previous CEQA analysis for the approved
Project. Dudek will also update the environmental and regulatory setting, as applicable, that reflects current
conditions for air quality, GHG emissions, and energy.
Air Quality. Dudek will prepare an assessment of the air quality impacts of the proposed Project utilizing the
significance thresholds in Appendix G of the CEQA Guidelines, the South Coast Air Quality Management District's
(SCAQMD) emissions -based thresholds, and the City's guidance, as applicable. After reviewing all available Project
materials, Dudek will prepare a request for any outstanding data needed (as part of Task 1) to conduct the analysis.
If precise information on a particular factor is not available from the City staff or its representatives, Dudek will make
every effort to quantify these items using the best available information for comparable data sources.
Local and regional climate, meteorology, and topography as they affect the accumulation or dispersal of air
pollutants will be presented in the air quality assessment. Current air quality conditions and recent trends in the
South Coast Air Basin, where the modified Project is located, will be described on the basis of California Air
Resources Board (CARB) and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency annual air quality monitoring data summaries.
Federal, state, and local regulatory agencies responsible for air quality management will be identified, and
applicable federal, state, and local air quality policies, regulations, and standards will be summarized, including a
discussion of the SCAQMD 2022 Air Quality Management Plan.
Dudek will estimate emissions associated with construction of the modified Project using the CaIEEMod. The
analysis of short-term construction emissions will be based on scheduling information (e.g., overall construction
duration, phasing and phase timing) and probable construction activities (e.g., construction equipment type and
quantity, workers, and haul trucks) developed by the City and/or standardized approaches. Dudek will then
evaluate the significance of the emissions based on the SCAQMD significance criteria.

Dudek will assess the modified Project's potential to cause or contribute to exceedances of ambient air quality
standards at sensitive receptors near the Project activities using the SCAQMD localized significance thresholds.
For projects with a total site area of 5 acres or less, the assessment may use a simple "lookup table" approach
provided by SCAQMD. For budgetary purposes, it is assumed that the maximum daily area of disturbance will not
exceed 5 acres; therefore, the localized significance threshold assessment will use the lookup table approach
provided by SCAQMD and the construction emission estimates from CalEEMod. If a dispersion model LST analysis
is required, Dudek can provide that effort under a separate scope and budget.
Dudek understands that the modified Project site is close to other sensitive receptors (residences); thus, a
construction health risk assessment is proposed to evaluate the impact of construction toxic air contaminants
TACs, specifically diesel particulate matter (DPM), on sensitive receptors (detailed below).
CalEEMod will also be used to estimate modified Project -generated operational criteria air pollutant emissions
associated with mobile, energy, and area sources. Dudek will estimate mobile source emissions using the trip
generation rates and additional necessary trip characteristics provided in the Applicant's traffic report prepared
for the Project. Energy and area source emissions (e.g., natural gas combustion and consumer products) will be
estimated using the default values in CalEEMod for the proposed land uses.
Dudek will qualitatively evaluate whether traffic associated with the modified Project could lead to potential exposure
of sensitive receptors to substantial localized concentrations of air pollutant emissions, specifically carbon monoxide
"hot spots." For budgetary purposes, it is assumed that the study intersections would not exceed the applied
screening criteria, and a quantitative carbon monoxide hotspots analysis would not be required.
Additional Appendix G thresholds will also be evaluated, including the potential for the Project to expose sensitive
receptors to substantial pollutant concentrations, to result in other emissions such as odors, or to impede
attainment of the 2022 SCAQMD air quality management plan. The CEQA document analysis will be prepared
consistent with the SCAQMD guidance and thresholds. Details of the analysis (e.g., daily criteria air pollutant
emission calculations) will be included in an appendix to the CEQA document.
Construction Health Risk Assessment, Dudek will evaluate the potential for the Project to expose sensitive
receptors to TACs during construction, where the primary TAC of concern would be DPM from heavy-duty trucks
and any onsite off -road equipment. The dispersion of DPM and associated health risk impacts on sensitive
receptors will be determined using the American Meteorological Society/U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
Regulatory Model (AERMOD), California Air Resources Board's (CARB) Hot Spots Analysis and Reporting Program
Version 2 (HARP2), local meteorological data obtained from SCAQMD, and the estimated annual average DPM
emissions. The maximum cancer risks at the appropriate receptors (e.g., proximate residential receptors) will be
estimated. The assessment will also include the estimated chronic (long-term) hazard indices due to non -cancer
health effects associated with DPM. If the health impacts exceed the thresholds of significance, we will suggest
appropriate mitigation measures to reduce the health impacts. A summary of the methodology and results would
be provided in the air quality assessment and detailed results will be provided in an appendix to the CEQA
document.
Energy. Dudek will prepare an energy assessment for the modified Project per Appendix G of the CEQA Guidelines.
The analysis will briefly summarize electricity, natural gas, and petroleum energy sources and the relevant
regulatory framework. Based on Appendix G of the CEQA Guidelines, the impact analysis will assess if the Project
would (1) result in potentially significant environmental impact due to wasteful, inefficient, or unnecessary
consumption of energy resources, during Project construction or operation, and (2) conflict with or obstruct a state
or local plan for renewable energy or energy efficiency. The Project will be assessed regarding construction and

operational energy consumption, which will be quantified to the extent estimation methods and Project -specifics
are available. Project electricity (kilowatt-hours) and natural gas (British thermal units) usage will be estimated
based on Project specifics and CaIEEMod default values, as appropriate, when Project specifics are not available.
Petroleum consumption will be estimated using CalEEMod and based on the same equipment and vehicle
assumptions assumed in the air quality and GHG emissions analysis. Project elements that would reduce the
proposed Project's energy demand during construction and operations will be identified in the analysis and
quantified as available. Dudek assumes that the City staff or its representatives will provide a list of the Project's
energy conservation measures prior to initiating air quality and GHG emissions modeling, as the energy analysis
will be prepared consistent with the emissions modeling assumptions.
Greenhouse Gas Emissions. The GHG emissions assessment will include a setting and background discussion
consisting of a summary of the greenhouse effect and global climate change, potential changes to the global
climate system and to California, and emission inventories at the national, state, and local levels. It will also
include a summary of the key federal, state, and local regulatory actions and programs to reduce GHG emissions.
Dudek will estimate the GHG emissions associated with construction of the modified Project using CalEEMod
based on the same construction scenario utilized in the air quality analysis. Project -generated operational GHG
emissions that will be estimated include those associated with mobile sources, natural gas usage, electrical
generation, water supply, wastewater, and solid waste disposal. The emissions estimates will be based on
information provided by the City staff or CaIEEMod default values.
The impact analysis will reflect Appendix G of the state CEQA Guidelines; specifically, whether a Project would
(a) generate GHG emissions, either directly or indirectly, that may have a significant impact on the environment
and (b) conflict with an applicable plan, policy, or regulation adopted for the purpose of reducing the emissions of
GHGs. The SCAQMD GHG CEQA Significance Threshold Working Group has proposed options lead agencies can
select from to screen thresholds of significance for GHG emissions in residential and commercial Projects;
however, no thresholds have been formally adopted. Options SCAQMD evaluated include a bright -line threshold of
3,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent per year for all land use types. We will work with City staff to
confirm application of the appropriate threshold for evaluating the Project's GHG emissions under CEQA. Details
of the analysis (e.g., annual GHG emission calculations) will be included in an appendix to the CEQA document.
The City worked with the South Bay Cities Council of Governments to prepare and adopt a Climate Action Plan
(December 2017); however, the City's Climate Action Plan is not a qualified plan under CEQA Guidelines Section
15183.5 and cannot be tiered from under environmental review. As such, Dudek will discuss how the modified
Project complies with the City's Climate Action Plan measures for reducing GHG emissions; state regulations
(Assembly Bill [ABj 32, AB 1279); Pacific Coast Commons Specific Plan goals, objectives, and policies that help
the City contribute to regional GHG reduction efforts; and applicable development standards that would increase
energy efficiency, such as the California Building Code. Dudek will also provide a qualitative post-2020 analysis
that will evaluate whether the Project -generated GHG emissions would impede the attainment of the 2030 and
2045 reduction goals identified in SB 32 and AB 1279, respectively. Because the City has not adopted a numeric
post-2020 threshold or provided guidance for demonstrating that a project will not impede the implementation of
state's post-2020 GHG reduction goals, a qualitative assessment is assumed to be sufficient.

Assumptions
Completion of the Data Needs Request (Subtask 1.1) is necessary to begin Subtask 1.2.
• Dudek assumes that the Project would not include operational stationary sources (e.g., diesel
emergency generator) and an associated operational health risk assessment would not be
required.
• Regarding health risks associated with locating future sensitive receptors near existing freeways,
the CARB Air Quality and Land Use Handbook: A Community Health Respective recommends
siting new sensitive land uses outside of 500 feet of freeways and urban roads with 100,000
vehicles per day. The Project site would be located approximately 1,900 feet south of Interstate
105. Furthermore, based on the California Department of Transportation Traffic Census Program,
the Pacific Coast Highway has a traffic volume of 55,000 annual average daily trips northbound
and 63,000 annual average daily trips southbound. Therefore, a health risk assessment to
evaluate the potential health risk of freeway DPM emissions on the Project is assumed to not be
required and is not proposed.

Dudek will review modified Project and completed Data Needs Request, along with City ordinances, general plan
policies, relevant state and federal guidance, and the previous PCCSP EIR noise section. Dudek will include
noise/vibration-specific questions in the Data Needs Request (as part of Task 1.1) for identifying information
needs that when received would facilitate predictive analyses and impact assessments associated with the
Specific Plan Amendment.
Dudek will conduct a field survey during daytime hours to measure pre -Project outdoor ambient sound pressure
levels (SPL) at up to four (4) nearby off -site measurement locations. The collected SPL data should quantify and
help characterize baseline acoustical conditions for the Project vicinity. While these short-term measurements will
be performed by an attending Dudek investigator using a portable American National Standards Institute (ANSI)
Type 1 or 2 sound level meter (SLM), and typically be no more than 15-20 minutes in duration each, at its
discretion Dudek may deploy one or two unattended long-term (e.g., 24-hours in duration) SLM to help determine
the representative outdoor sound environment for a typical diurnal cycle. At Dudek discretion and to the extent
practical, one or more of these baseline sound level survey locations may replicate survey positions from the
previous PCCSP EIR and thus evaluate potential changes to the existing outdoor ambient sound environment.
Short -duration roadway segment traffic counts may also be collected based on field investigator observations.
Using available Project information and City response to the data request of Subtask 1.1, Dudek will perform the
following predictive analyses:
• For each of several distinct onsite construction activity phases, construction noise exposure level at up to
four (4) nearest or representative offsite noise -sensitive residential receptors using a Federal Highway
Administration (FHWA) Roadway Construction Noise Model (RCNM) emulator. If construction phasing
creates newly occupied residences onsite within the Project boundary while subsequent construction
remains, we will include assessment at up to four (4) additional onsite representative positions.
• Dudek will estimate groundborne vibration exposure levels per Federal Transit Administration (FTA) or
California Department of Transportation guidance -based methods.
Proximate roadway traffic noise and Project contribution to a future traffic sound environment, with FHWA
(e.g., Traffic Noise Model, version 2.5]) or Federal Transit Administration (FTA) methodologies at Dudek's
discretion using traffic data (e.g., average daily traffic and/or peak hour volumes) provided as a result of
the Project traffic and circulation analysis. Our traffic noise modeling will include consideration of an
703 N. PCH Project Environmental Documentation Proposal 21

appropriate set of up to ten (10) roadway segments (but not necessarily the same quantity or extent as
the aforementioned traffic and circulation analysis provided by others) for up to six (6) distinct scenarios
(e.g., existing, existing+ Project, near -term cumulative, near -term cumulative + Project, build -out
cumulative, build -out cumulative + Project). Dudek will use relevant collected data from the outdoor
ambient baseline SPL baseline survey to help validate the traffic noise predictions for the existing
conditions scenario, which will then allow confident predictive modeling of future traffic noise.
Aggregate sound emission from stationary Project on -site noise producers (such as operation of building
heating, ventilation, and air conditioning [HVAC] systems) to existing offsite noise -sensitive receptors in
the surrounding community. We will model up to four (4) scenarios of onsite noise emission, using

reference data, corresponding with potential or anticipated Project development progress and may also
include estimating exposure levels to newly created onsite residential occupants.
If predicted noise and vibration due to Project -attributed construction, effects on surface transportation, and
stationary -sources operation are expected to exceed relevant standards and policies, we will recommend
conceptual options for Project design features (i.e., noise barriers or partial enclosures) for consideration and
incorporation into the final project design (or alternately, expressed as mitigation measures).
The significance of noise impacts will be assessed based on the relevant City, state, and federal thresholds. We
will also compare these findings with previous conclusions and proposed mitigation measures associated with the
previous PPCSP EIR. If new or altered significant noise impacts are identified, mitigation measures to reduce
impacts to a less than significant level (where feasible) will be recommended. The regulatory background,
ambient noise environment, methodology, results of the noise analysis, findings of potential effects and mitigation
measures will be summarized in the noise section of the Project's CEQA document. Summarized results and
findings will be compiled into the draft CEQA document noise section with an accompanying appendix of technical

Records Search® Dudek will begin by conducting a California Historical Resources Information Systems records
search of the Specific Plan Amendment area and a 0.5-mile radius at the South Central Coastal Information
Center, which houses cultural resource records for Los Angeles County. If it is determined that the previously
conducted records search will suffice, then no additional records search is required. The purpose of the records
search is to identify any previously recorded cultural resources that may be located within the modified Project
area. In addition to a review of previously prepared site records and reports, the records search will also review
historical maps of the modified Project area, ethnographies, the National Register of Historic Places, the California
Register of Historical Resources, the California Historic Property Data File, and the lists of California State
Historical Landmarks, California Points of Historical Interest, and Archaeological Determinations of Eligibility.

Native Airnerican Coordination. Dudek will contact the California Native American Heritage Commission
(NAHC) for a review of their Sacred Lands File (SLF). This task is independent of efforts in compliance with
Assembly Bill 52, a government -to -government process between the CEQA lead agency and California Native
American Tribes, but may be used to support the effort. Refer to Optional Task 7.2 for assistance with AB 52.
Fieldwork. Because the proposed Project site is fully developed providing no potential for ground surface
visibility, Dudek assumes that a pedestrian survey for archaeological resources is not necessary. Therefore, this
scope and the associated costs does not include fieldwork of any kind. Sould conditions change, Dudek will
provide an augment to this scope of work and associated costs as appropriate.
The built environment resources survey will be conducted by one (1) qualified architectural historian working no
more than one (1) day to complete. The survey will entail taking detailed notes and photographs of the exterior of
the building, including documentation of the overall existing conditions of the property, potential character -
defining features, spatial relationships, landscaping design, and alterations. The survey will be restricted to the
exterior of the building and grounds. Dudek assumes that the qualified staff person performing the survey will
have access to the exterior of the property. Should any additional resources be identified as a result of the survey
requiring recordation and evaluation, a budget augment may be required to address these resources.
Record and (Evaluate Resources. According to Los Angeles County Assessor records and a cursory review of
available historical information, properties within the modified Project include 703 North Pacific Coast Highway
(AIN 4139-018-001), constructed in 1957. The one (1) property over 45 years in age will be recorded on State of
California Department of Parks and Recreation Series 523 Forms (DPR forms), and will be evaluated in
consideration of National Register of Historic Places, California Register of Historical Resources, and local designation
criteria and integrity requirements.
As part of this task, Dudek will conduct building development research online or at the City of El Segundo to
determine the nature and extent of alterations that have been made to the property over time and retrieve
information on any previous owners/occupants. Dudek will also conduct archival research to develop the
appropriate historic context for the property significance evaluation. This may include visiting local libraries or
archives and contacting relevant historical societies and data repositories. Dudek assumes no more than one
property is over 45 years in age and will require recordation and evaluation. Should additional built environment
properties require recordation and evaluation as part of the project, Dudek will be pleased to provide an augment
to this scope and cost for authorization.
Cultural (Resources Technical (Report. Dudek will prepare a cultural resources technical report that will
summarize the analysis conducted relative to the proposed project's potential to impact historical built
environment resources under CEQA and will provide mitigation measures as appropriate. All DPR forms will be
included as an appendix to the report. We assume no more than one draft and one final version of the report will
be required.
CIECIA Docurxnent Sections. The results of the CHRIS records search, background research, NAHC SLF results,
pedestrian survey, and all of City of El Segundo's AB 52 and SB 18 efforts for the proposed Project, including
notification and consultation with applicable tribes, will be summarized accordingly in the Cultural and Tribal
Cultural Resources sections of the CEQA document. These sections will discuss the proposed Project's potential to
impact Cultural and Tribal Cultural Resources in conformance with CEQA and will provide mitigation measures and
recommendations as appropriate.

One (1) draft and one (1) final Cultural Resources Technical Report
Assumptions
Dudek assumes that all comments on the cultural resources technical report will be editorial in
nature and not require additional research or field survey.
This scope assumes the property at 703 North Pacific Coast Highway will be ineligible as a
historical resource and an impacts analysis and the development of mitigation measures will not
be required. Should the evaluation find the property eligible as a historical resource, a budget
augment will be required to address impacts and mitigation.
0 Direct and indirect costs incurred to conduct the CHRIS records search at the SCCIC will not
exceed $600 (this does not include labor).
The records search will not identity archaeological resources that require additional research or
fieldwork. Should resources be identified that require tasks not included in this scope, Dudek will
provide an augment to this scope of work and associated costs as appropriate.
■ This scope of work does not include in -person or virtual appearances by Dudek cultural resources
staff at City meetings or hearings. Should this service be desired, a budget augment will be
necessary.
All information related to archaeological resources will be provided directly into the CEQA
document. No separate report documenting methods, findings or conclusions regarding
archaeological resources is required.

Dudek will perform a shade/shadow modeling analysis of the proposed development at 703 N. PCH to determine
potential impacts to adjacent shade -sensitive land uses in accordance with the City's applicable thresholds for
significance. This task will be accomplished by utilizing a LiDAR (light detection and ranging) model of the
surrounding terrain, buildings, and vegetation to simulate the position of shadows cast by the proposed building
onto the existing environment. Three points of the day (morning, noon, and afternoon) will be analyzed on the
Winter Solstice, Spring Equinox, Summer Solstice, and Fall Equinox resulting in twelve (12) shade/shadow figures.
These figures will be used to illustrate the existing shadows in the immediate vicinity compared to the shadows of
the new building in order to determine if the structure would cast a new shadow or simply add to existing shadows
on surrounding areas.
Deliverables
Twelve (12) shade/shadow figures to be used in the CEQA document provided in PDF format
Assumptions
The applicant will provide 3D architectural files of the proposed structures in DWG, DXF, 3DS, or

requirements of the City's SIB 743 Implementation Policy (May 2022) and the Circulation Element of the General
Plan. The TIA will need to assess the Specific Plan Amendment in the context of the previously approved PCCSP,
which has not yet been constructed. Specifically, this scope of work includes the following:
Ensure components of the TIA include an evaluation of the following: (1) applicable transportation
thresholds, policies and programs at the city, regional, and state levels; (2) potential impacts to VMT per
the recently updated CEQA guidelines and output from the current SCAG RTP/SCS travel demand model;
(3) potential impacts related to alternative transportation, including public transportation, bike and
pedestrian traffic; (4) potential impacts to emergency access and turning -radius for trucks; (5) potential
impacts to the existing street network due to changes from deductions, and access driveways; (6) review
appropriate consideration of cumulative projects; and (7) recommended improvements to minimize any
potential impacts.
Dudek will identify the criteria used to determine significance; identify any significant and less than
significant, direct, and indirect impacts resulting from the proposed project; review/confirm appropriate
mitigation measures as may be required; and review/confirm any impacts remaining after implementation
of the recommended mitigation measures (if any).
Should Dudek determine that further modifications and/or revisions to the TIA are necessary, Dudek will work
with the City and the applicant to revise the analysis/conclusions as appropriate. The findings of the peer review,
and recommendations, will be provided in a technical memorandum. Preparation of the technical memorandum
includes any necessary coordination with City staff during the review of the TIA.

Dudek's in-house transportation group will conduct a third -party peer review of the Parking Demand Study
prepared by Project Applicant's transportation consultant and provide our findings in a peer review technical
memorandum. The peer review will be based on the requirements and policies in the City's Municipal Code
regarding on -site (off-street) parking requirements, as well as, parking methodologies outlined in the current
publications of Parking Generation from the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) from the Urban Land
Institute (ULI). The Parking Demand Study will need to assess the Specific Plan Amendment in the context of the
previously approved PCCSP, which has not yet been constructed, and determine whether any shared parking is
required within parts of the PCCSP and Amendment areas. It is understood that the modified Project would
require the elimination of a portion of an existing surface parking lot, while the adjacent surface parking is
understood to remain and would not be affected by the modified Project. The peer review will focus on the

addition, the review will also determine whether the study addresses the potential for off -site parking demand due
to the proposed parking pricing for residents and a retail patrons; discussion of current off -site parking demand
adjacent to the site; provision of short- and long-term bicycle parking; and, commercial loading areas. Should any
additional analyses be determined to be required, Dudek will work with City staff to notify and discuss with the
Applicant. The peer review findings will be provided in a technical memorandum, and provided to the City for
review and approval.
Deliverables
a One (1) draft and (1) final Parking Demand Study Peer Review Memorandum.
Assumptions
This Subtask includes budget to coordinate with the City and incorporate the findings of the
Applicant's Parking Demand Study into the Draft EIR only. Dudek will not be preparing any
technical studies.
• Any revisions that may be required to the Applicant's technical studies would be conducted by the
Applicant's authoring consultant.
■ This task assumes the original PCCSP project components would not change and that the
addition of the 703 N PCH project is the only addition to the modified Project.
Task 2 Initial Study
Dudek will prepare an Initial Study that will assess whether the modified Project meets the requirements set forth
in CEQA Guidelines Section 15162 or 15163 related to preparation of a Subsequent or Supplemental EIR,
respectively, or whether preparation of an Addendum is appropriate. The Initial Study will include checklist
questions that would identify whether any of the circumstances in CEQA Guidelines Section 15162 are applicable
for each individual environmental topic, as shown below.
The Initial Study will focus on the addition of the modified Project area and intended land uses, and will consider
whether the modified Project would cause significant effects that were not examined, or would require revisions
that could be more substantial than were analyzed in the PCCSP EIR. Assumingthe preparation of an SEIR is
appropriate, the Initial Study will be used to narrow the focus of the environmental issues addressed in the SEIR,
as appropriate. It is anticipated that the following CEQA issue areas will be sufficiently analyzed in the Initial Study
to allow their scoping out from further analysis in the SEIR: Agriculture and Forestry Resources; Biological
Resources; Geology and Soils; Hazards and Hazardous Materials; Hydrology and Water Quality; Mineral Resources;
and Wildfire.
This task assumes that the Applicant's Geotechnical Report, Phase I Environmental Site Assessment, and
Hydrology/Drainage/LID are available at the time of the preparation of the Initial Study and that they have been
deemed adequate by the City's staff for use. Dudek will incorporate the analyses provided by the Applicant's

✓UI:UJII`j. lI CIIVCIUPV I✓. 0%,U/1J000-✓5/ I U0
reports into the Initial Study based on the preliminary assumption that no new significant impacts would occur.
Dudek will utilize the paleontological resources records search data previously prepared for the PCCSP EIR to
evaluate the modified Project. If new significant impacts are discovered, these topics would be evaluated in the
SEIR and would not be focused out through the Initial Study.
Dudek will use information from the PCCSP/City-provided information to inform this analysis. Dudek will prepare a
first draft Initial Study in electronic format. Upon receipt of comments, Dudek will revise accordingly and submit a
revised draft Initial Study for final review by the City.
It is assumed that upon completion of the revised Initial Study as well as the completion of all technical studies
under Task 1, that the City will provide direction regarding the preparation of an SEIR or an Addendum. If an SEIR
is prepared, at the City's direction, Dudek can include the Initial Study as an Appendix to the Draft SEIR or retain it
as a part of the Administrative Record. If the City decides to prepare an Addendum, Dudek will use the Initial
Study as the basis for the Addendum (see Task 8).
Deliverables
• First draft Initial Study: one (1) electronic copy (MS Word and PDF)
• Revised/Final Initial Study: one (1) electronic copy (MS Word in track -change and PDF)

Task 3 Draft SEIR
&.fllkt as ( 3.1]rst Drzrft aull 1R
As detailed under "CEQA Approach," Dudek anticipates preparation of an SEIR to the PCCSP EIR to accommodate
the Specific Plan Amendment. Dudek will coordinate with the City to confirm the City -preferred template and CEQA
Guideline thresholds. Dudek will prepare the first draft SEIR, which will include the project description developed
under Subtask 1.1. The SEIR will address the environmental issues in CEQA Appendix G (other than issues scoped
out under Task 2) and will be formatted as follows:
Table of Contents. The table of contents will contain a list of SEIR contents, including text discussions and lists of
tables and exhibits. It will also include a list of appendices that will be attached to the SEIR.
Executive Summary. Pursuant to Section 15123 of the CEQA Guidelines, the summary will contain an overview of
the Project, including a list of required discretionary approvals. The summary will also include a summary of
impacts and mitigation measures, known areas of controversy including issues raised by agencies and the public,
and a summary of alternatives to the Project.
Introduction. The introduction section of the SEIR will define the purpose, scope, and legislative authority of the
SEIR, CEQA requirements, and other pertinent environmental rules and regulations. This section will also describe
the SEIR process, structure, and required contents, as well as its relationship to other potential responsible or
trustee agencies. This section will include a description of land use and Specific Plan planning efforts completed
to date. An overview of the SEIR format and content as well as processing requirements will also be provided in

Project Description. Dudek will update/revise and incorporate the Project description prepared under Subtask 1.1.
A detailed description of the Specific Plan Amendment all the Project components and site plan details will be
included, as well as a description of short-term construction and long-term operational activities. The Project
description also includes a discussion of the intended uses of the SEIR and a list of permits and approvals
required to implement the Project.
Environmental Impact Analysis. Our approach to evaluating impacts related to the remaining topical chapters is
summarized as follows.
Aesthetics. The SEIR will evaluate visual changes and potential impacts to scenic vistas and the visual
character in the Project vicinity that would occur as a result of the modified Project. To support this analysis,
architectural drawings (provided by the architect) will be included in the SEIR section. It is assumed that the
architect's visual renderings and concept aerial views will be adequate to visually depict the proposed Project
and that no additional visual simulations are required. Dudek will incorporate the shade and shadow modeling
results of the Dudek's analyses (Subtask 1.5) into the SEIR. The SEIR will determine whether new or more
substantial impacts would occur with the modified Project and whether new/revised mitigation is required.
Air Quality/Energy/Greenhouse Gas Emissions. Dudek will incorporate the analysis and findings of the Dudek's
analyses (Subtask 1.2) into the SEIR. Details of the modeling will be included in an appendix to the SEIR.
Cultural Resources. Dudek will incorporate the analysis and findings of the Dudek's analyses (Subtask 1.4) into
the SEIR. The Built Environment Report and record search data will be included in an appendix to the SEIR.
Land Use and Planning. The land use section of the SEIR will describe the consistency of the modified Project
with the PCCSP goals and intents, and other adopted land use policies, including the Southern California
Association of Governments (SCAG) 2020-2045 Regional Transportation Plan/Sustainable Communities
Strategy. It is assumed that the Specific Plan Amendment will provide an analysis of the modified Project's
consistency with the City's General Plan for use in the Draft SEIR. The land use section will describe the
compatibility and any potential conflicts between the modified Project with existing adjacent development.
The SEIR will evaluate the extent to which development standards or proposed design standards would
eliminate or minimize potential conflicts between the modified Project and adjacent uses. The SEIR will
determine whether new or more substantial impacts would occur with the modified Project and whether
new/revised mitigation is required.
Noise. Dudek will incorporate the analysis and findings of the Dudek's Noise analysis (Subtask 1.3) into the
SEIR. Details of the noise analysis will be included in an appendix to the SEIR.
Population and Housing. Dudek will evaluate the anticipated increase the number of residents and employees
at the modified Project site that could alter the population, employment, and housing characteristics for the
area. The employment and housing characteristics of the City and region will be summarized and will be used
to determine potential Project impacts. Applicable PCCSP policies regarding population, housing, and
employment opportunities will also be described and analyzed. The SEIR will determine whether new or more
substantial impacts would occur with the modified Project and whether new/revised mitigation is required.
Public Services and Recreation. These sections will address potential impacts of the modified Project on police
and fire department response capabilities and time resulting from increased density on the Project site. This
analysis will provide a qualitative existing condition assessment of fire protection, police protection, emergency
medical service, schools, parks, and libraries. Development of these estimates may necessitate outreach to the
703 N. PCH Project Environmental Documentation Proposal 28
VUI:U01yI CIIVWUPU IU. /UO
fire department, police department, or use of local emergency response data. Impacts on recreational facilities,
schools, and libraries will also be analyzed. The SEIR will determine whether new or more substantial impacts
would occur with the modified Project and whether new/revised mitigation is required.
Transportation. Dudek will incorporate the analysis and findings of the TIA prepared for the Project by the
Applicant and peer reviewed by Dudek (Subtask 1.6). The Applicant's VMT analysis will be included as an
appendix to the SEIR.
Tribal Cultural Resources. It is anticipated that the City will conduct coordination to support AB 52 and SB 18
requirements related to Native American coordination, and Dudek will summarize the City's process in the
tribal cultural resources section of the SEIR.
Utilities and Service Systems. This section of the SEIR will evaluate the potential for the modified Project to
affect water, wastewater, stormwater, and solid waste services. It is assumed that an infrastructure capacity
analysis will be provided by the Applicant to confirm that the off -site pipelines and infrastructure can
accommodate the demands of the modified Project. This section will address whether the wastewater
generated by the Project would require the expansion of existing wastewater treatment facilities or the
construction of new wastewater treatment facilities, and whether existing or planned stormwater drainage
systems are adequate. Dudek will also provide projections of solid waste generation, which will be compared
to existing and future landfill capacity to determine whether the changes in land use would substantially
shorten the life of the landfill or necessitate expansion of the landfill.
The Project includes development of an additional 50 residential units and 13,754 square feet of retail.
Dudek anticipates that the modified Project does not meet the requirements to prepare a Water Supply
Assessment in accordance with the requirements of SB 610. As such, Dudek will answer the CEQA threshold
question of whether there would be "sufficient water supplies available to serve the Project and reasonably
foreseeable future development during normal, dry, and multiple dry years." This task assumes that the City
will provide a will -serve letter for water supply to determine whether additional water required for the modified
Project would exceed the water supply assessed within the City's UWMP.
Alternatives tote Proposed Project. The alternatives section will be prepared to meet the objectives of the CEQA
Guidelines by addressing alternatives to the modified Project as proposed. Each alternative will be evaluated with
respect to the environmental issue area reviewed for the modified Project. As required by the CEQA Guidelines,
the advantages and disadvantages of each alternative and the reasons for rejecting or recommending it will be
provided. The environmentally superior alternative will be identified from among the alternatives to the proposed
Project. In addition, a narrative will be provided that discusses alternatives that were considered but were
determined to be infeasible, and therefore not assessed in detail. For purposes of this analysis, it is assumed that
three alternatives will be carried forward for analysis evaluated in the SEIR.
CEQA Mandated EIRSections. Dudek will analyze and prepare all additional CEQA mandated EIR sections in
accordance with the criteria, standards, and procedures of CEQA and the Guidelines as amended. This analysis
will include a discussion of the irreversible environmental changes that could result from the proposed Project,
unavoidable significant impacts and growth -inducing impacts. The growth -inducing impacts analysis will build
upon the analysis of the housing and population and will assess the potential for the project to induce economic
or population growth, with consideration of the distinction between new growth stimulation and expected growth
accommodation. This section will also include a summary of the effects determined not to be significant, including
those topics that were scoped out through the Initial Study.
List of Preparers. This section will include the preparers of the SEIR.

Assumptions
In the event the City would like to publish the NOA in a paper of local circulation, Dudek assumes
the City will take the lead on posting the notice with the paper and that the Applicant would post
the notice on the Project site, if needed.
Task 4 Preparation of Final SEIR
Upon completion of the 45-day public review period, Dudek will prepare a Final SEIR, including the following
chapters: Response to Comments, Clarifications to the Draft SEIR, and Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Plan
(MMRP). A CD containing the Draft SEIR and technical appendices will be affixed to the back cover of each hard
copy Final SEIR.
The Response to Comments chapter will include comments received on the Draft SEIR, responses to those
comments, and standard introductory material. All comments will be numbered (to indicate comment letter and
comment number), and the responses to those comments will be similarly numbered to allow easy correlation. For
purposes of this scope of work and cost estimate, Dudek assumes up to 100 hours of professional staff time to
address the comment letters for a first draft submittal to the City. Since the actual scope and extent of public
comments (in either written or oral format) cannot be known at this time, if additional staff hours are needed to
prepare responses to comments, a budget augment will be requested.
If necessary, Dudek will prepare clarifications to the Draft SEIR chapter that will identify any instances where
revisions to the Draft SEIR are necessary. In this chapter, deleted text will be indicated by strikeout and inserted
text by double underline. The MMRP will be in table format and will specify Project -specific mitigation measures
that are applicable to the Project. Mitigation timing and responsible parties will also be identified.
Upon receipt of comments, Dudek will revise the response to comments, clarifications to the Draft SEIR, and
MMRP accordingly. Dudek will provide a proof check document for approval to reproduce. A total of 30 hours of
professional staff time has been assumed for this effort. Dudek will assist the City with providing the Final SEIR at
least 10 days prior to consideration for certification by the City to any commenting public agency.
Deliverables

Notice of Preparation. As stated in CEQA Guidelines Section 15162(d), a subsequent EIR must be given the same
noticing and public review as required under Section 15087, which is specific to the public review of a Draft EIR. A
subsequent EIR does not require a Notice Preparation (NOP). However, if the City determines that issuance of an
NOP is preferred, Dudek will prepare a NOP consistent with the procedural and substantive provisions of the CEQA
Guidelines. The Initial Study prepared under Task 2, which narrowed the focus of the environmental issues
addressed in the SEIR, would be prepared as an electronic Attachment to the NOR A hardcopy Initial Study would
not be included with the NOP mailing, but would be available for review on the City's website and at the
library(ies). Dudek will prepare a first draft NOP in electronic format. Upon receipt of comments, Dudek will revise
accordingly and submit a revised draft NOP for final review before preparing the final NOP for public review. A
print -ready copy of the final Initial Study/NOP in electronic format (MS Word and PDF) will be submitted for review
and approval to print. Dudek will also prepare a draft and final Notice of Completion (NOC) for submittal to the
State Clearinghouse.

The modified Project is not subject to compliance with Assembly Bill (AB) 52, that requires lead agencies to provide
tribes who have requested notification with early notice of the project, but is subject to compliance with Senate Bill (SB)
18, which requires lead agencies to provide California tribes (provided by the Native American Heritage Commission
traditionally and ancestrally affiliated with the project area) early notice of the project to inform the CEQA process with
respect to tribal cultural resources. While AB 52 and SB 18 are a government -to -government processes between the
CEQA lead agency and California Native American Tribes, Dudek can assist the City with their Native American
consultation obligations. This task includes composition of the notification letters subject to the City's approval for
placement on City letterhead for dissemination by the City's staff via email and USPS certified mail to each of the
eligible tribal representatives pursuant to AB 52 and SB 18. The letter would include the following: location of proposed
Project site and associated figure, a summary of the proposed Project including extent of ground disturbing activities (if
known), agency contact information, and a clear statement requesting all communication within 30 days of receipt of
notification under AB 52 and within 90 days of receipt of notification under SB 18. Additionally, this optional scope and
associated estimated cost includes discussion with the City regarding an overview of the AB 52 and SB 18 processes
and mitigation requirements as well as call(s) with the City (no Tribal entities included in the meeting) in preparation for
consultation and/or debrief after the City's consultation.
Deliverables

Sulbt9as14( 8,11P. Addeir), lo.jirn
Upon confirmation that the technical reports prepared under Task 1 and the Initial Study prepared under Task 2
will substantiate preparation of an Addendum for the modified project, Dudek will prepare an Addendum
consistent with the provisions of CEQA Guidelines Section 15164. The Addendum will consist of an introduction
describing the project history; a summary of applicable CEQA requirements, including a description of why the
project modifications do not warrant a subsequent EIR; the project location and setting; and a comparison of the
modified project to the approved project. Next, a summary of the environmental effects, mitigation measures, and
level of significance after mitigation per the 2022 certified EIR would be provided for the approved project. The
Addendum would then provide the environmental impact analysis for the modified project, which would
demonstrate that the project modifications would not result in new significant environmental effects, would not
result in a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects, and would not require
new mitigation measures. Two rounds of City review are assumed for the addendum.

Substantial changes have not occurred with respect to the circumstances under which the project
is undertaken such that new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the
severity of previously identified significant effects will occur.
No new information of substantial importance has arisen that would substantially alter the
environmental impact conclusions in the EIR (i.e., no new significant effects would be identified;
previously identified significant effects would not substantially increase in severity; mitigation
measures or alternatives previously found infeasible would not become feasible).
